Abstract

An image processing method and an apparatus for personal protection in a video call is provided. The image processing method in a communication terminal may include receiving an input of a video signal from a camera for a video call, recognizing a body shape of a user, by detecting a body outline of the user captured by the camera in an image included in the video signal, processing an area corresponding to the body shape to be in a form of a silhouette, in order to protect exposure of a figure and an identity of the user while maintaining an ambient image of the user in the video image, and transmitting the processed video image, as a final video signal for the video call, to at least one target communication terminal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an image processing method and a device thereof which not only maintain the sense of presence but also protect personal images during video calls. Background technique [0002] At present, due to the continuous development of mobile communication technology and terminal technology, mobile communication terminals are not limited to audio calls, but provide a variety of additional functions. For example, various functions such as exchanging photos with the other party, downloading images through the server, playing online games through the wireless network, etc. In particular, the video call function has attracted more attention due to the popularization of mobile communication terminals equipped with high-function cameras. And recently, due to the advent of technologies such as HSDPA (High Speed ​​Downlink Packet Access) for high-speed data transmission, the usage of video calls using mobile communication terminals has been gre...
